Here is a couple tracks from the new Charles Stuart Live record that I played on.
Charles Stuart is a great drummer in the Metro Detroit area and he asked me to play with him in a very open, no holes barred electric fusion/jam/jazz project.
The premise was to massacre
some stuff by the greats. Coltrane, Miles, Shorter, and some Hendrix thrown in too. On fretless bass is another fine Detroit musician, James Simonson.
This recording was our first gig, NO rehursal of any kind, and the first time we ever set foot on stage together. Most of the songs I have never played before, on top of which I was responsible for all head/melody lines. I got a CD from Charles with the songs he wanted to do and I listened to them and jotted down notes the afternoon of the gig.
If this sounds like I am putting up a disclaimer. IT IS!
The recording is a direct feed off the board to a CD burner, and the sound is whatever the soundman had going. He is cool and gives everybody that plays the room(Memphis Smoke) a CD after the show.
Initially, Charles was just going to use it as a promo for getting gigs, then he liked it so much he actually released it, much to my chagrin.
Gear info: Yamaha 912J Frankenstrat, Bogner Ecstacy through 1 12"EVM, Boss CE3, Dunlop wah, Lexicon verb.
I am not set up for clip posting, so they are full (quite long) versions off Charles's
website.
Oh Yes, Tag and RichardB cannot download.
